Spent a crazy weekend with Matt Jansen at the Monaco GP. Stories he told about Mark Goldberg @ Palace are the stuff of legend.

I remember when he was the next big sensation (for a month or two) when he was at Blackburn, talks of England’s next big hope etc. Was he just not that good in the end?

Had an extremely bad motorcycle accident that f***ed him up. Mind you, he was still good enough to play PL football for several more years. Lovely fella and invested his eye-watering salary very wisely

I was at Wembley in 1997 for the World Cup Qualifier against Italy. I remember this story from that time - which didn't go down well and probably didn't help his cause.

England lost 1-0. Fortunately, England managed to play out a 0-0 draw in Italy and avoided the play-offs.
